The first line of the letter talks about openness with supporters so how about some openness regarding the positions of Tommy Widdrington and Martyn Starnes. Are they still with the club ? I was hoping that they may have co-written that first statement, and would be thrown under the bus.

I don't think she's caught up in anything at all, Bambi. She wrote to me I'm sure regarding an enquiry or request (I forget exactly my wording) I made via the 'Contact Us' form Rich Mace discussed recently then regarding cycle security. She wrote to me as above, and I think I replied with an arguably terse but simply courteous 'Many thanks.'

Supporter Services Manager Clare McDonagh wrote to me at 3.53pm today to say that she would pass my enquiry on to the Chief Executive. I'll let you know if I get a response from Mr Starnes. Widdrington's presumably lying low until Team B***** are removed in the next reset. He ought to have been the continuity candidate from Clarke to Garner's successor, but he didn't have the balls, apparently. Just a word here Shoves, Clare is one of life's 'Good Guys', she doesn't deserve to be caught up in this, so be nice to her please. Yes x10

If she writes to me again then I'll send her your warm regards. She was just informing me of having forwarded a message to Mr Starnes. Whether he'll respond rather depends on whether he's attending a residential rehab, I suppose.

That seems unfair! I think anything relating to B*****'s latest prosecution and suggestion that the club statement may be of grey legality has maybe taken priority.

Let’s try to keep it hip, happening, and cool. You meant to say she’s a babe.

What else is there to do? Get invited in for coffee and give the dog a bone? It’s cool for cats.

'I have seen first-hand that there is division within the fanbase.' Is division the right word? There was division before, but there now seems to be a consensus that he cannot continue in the role, at least for the time being. Sacking would be inappropriate, primarily for legal reasons, but he surely has to be suspended until this is resolved. You have failed to take this decision. 'Any individual that is found guilty of any such offences will be dismissed immediately.' Clearly that doesn't apply to you appointing them in the first place Wael. If B***** had acknowledged and learned from his mistakes and was a reformed character, this would clearly be a different situation. To be fair to Wael, I expect that B***** convinced him that he had acknowledged and learned from his mistakes and was a reformed character. I expect that B***** did the same with his wife too. Nobody would attach their fortunes to somebody like B*****, knowing that he was going to carry on in such an angry and unstable way.
People are capable of changing, and they have to start somewhere, and Wael obviously hoped/believed that B***** was one such person. I did too, when B***** was appointed.
Sometimes hope wins out. If the latest allegations are true, then those of us who were prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt were clearly wrong.

Retain trust? Nope. Get rid of B*****, get rid of the moron who put that statement up yesterday, apologise for ever bringing B***** here and maybe we can have a discussion, until then you are in the same camp as those who have brought shame and humiliation onto my club. You seriously think you can write that garbage and all will be forgiven? 1. It's not your club, it belongs to Wael. 2. When it comes to Garbage there is lot on here as well. 3. Doubt it Wael will ever sit down an have a discussion with you. You are either a supporter or a follower. Either way you are a consumer and as such you may write to the owner, or not, but you are in no position to demand

Find me a single public statement where Wael has ever used the word 'my' when referencing the club. Either way, he attempted to lay down terms, I reject them and counter with what would be acceptable to me. What's the issue?
